SEC Basketball Tourney Scenario

I know LSU at Ole Miss is tonight but let’s think about this as South Carolina is either going to be the #5 seed or #6 seed.

This is how the tourney would look if it started today:

W5 vs E4:  Alabama (15-14, 5-10)  vs  Florida (20-10, 9-6)
Winner vs W1:  Mississippi State (21-9, 9-6)

E6 vs W3:  South Carolina (14-15, 5-10)  vs  Arkansas (14-16, 7-8)
Winner vs E2:  Vanderbilt (23-6, 12-3)

E5 vs W4:  Georgia (13-15, 5-10)  vs  Auburn (15-15, 6-9)
Winner vs E1:  Kentucky (28-2, 13-2)

W6 vs E3:  LSU (10-18, 1-13)  vs  Tennessee (22-7, 10-5)
Winner vs W2:  Ole Miss (19-9, 7-7)

Tiebreakers:

* SECw #2 seed is up to either Ole Miss or Arkansas.  Follow this —- If the Rebels win tonight and beat the Hogs on Saturday, they will keep the #2 seed.  If they lose tonight and beat Arkansas on Saturday, they will keep the #2 seed.  If the Rebels lose tonight and lose on Saturday, Arkansas will grab the #2 seed.  If the Rebels win tonight and lose on Saturday, Arkansas will earn the #2 seed based on their sweep of UM.

* SECe #5 seed is still undecided…..UGa owns the tiebreaker over USC due to they have more division wins (4 to 3).  If Carolina upsets Vandy on Saturday, Carolina would move past Georgia into 5th place.
